An example of 3D model generated with my Gugulele OnShape script…

* Headless 3 string instrument
* Gourd shaped design
* 250mm string length from nut to bridge
* Single rectangular through-body spine
* Single oval off center sound hole
* Tail-end placement of friction tuners
* 2 pieces snap fit
* body 320mm x 110mm x 57mm
* fretboard 152mm x 35mm x 12mm

I designed this for kids, but adults can sort of play it. Since this is a 3 string instrument, there isn't a standard tuning. My demo video (https://youtu.be/FQDd4ztBd5A) has it tuned to A - C# - E i.e. A Major triad.

Third Party Parts:
* Spine/rods e.g. https://dragonplate.com/ecart/product.asp?pID=749&cID=20
* It comes in ~610mm (24") long, just cut it down to size ~290mm...
* if you don't use a rod, the neck will bow under string tension
* Cheap friction tuners like https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HFQ88Y
* Any soprano ukulele string set should do, e.g. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SQ6DFK
